NHTSA Complaint #11003178 — 2016 FORD FUSION ENERGI

VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE CRUISING AROUND 70 MPH ON FREEWAY. DASHBOARD DISPLAYED A WRENCH ICON AND INSTRUCTIONS TO "REFER TO MANUAL". ALL DISPLAYS, CLIMATE CONTROL, AND ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM STILL FUNCTIONAL. VEHICLE HAD MINIMAL ENGINE POWER, NOT ENOUGH TO ACCELERATE OR MAINTAIN FREEWAY SPEED BUT ENOUGH TO EXIT FREEWAY AND PULL OVER INTO A PARKING LOT. TURNING CAR OFF AND RESTARTING AFTER FIVE MINUTES RESTORED ALL NORMAL FUNCTION, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON. CAR FUNCTIONED NORMALLY (ASIDE FROM CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) THE NEXT DAY AND WAS DRIVEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DIAGNOSIS. DIAGNOSIS WAS A BROKEN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, DESCRIBED AS A "KNOWN ISSUE", WHICH WAS REPLACED.
